Storyline
Announcement
Captain Sulu, among others, feels Starfleet has been approaching the temporal anomaly crisis with the wrong attitude. Instead of viewing it as a crisis that has to be set right, Starfleet should consider themselves to have entered uncharted space, populated by foreign explorers, and conduct themselves accordingly. [1]
Prologue
- Captain Sulu: "Starfleet may consider this a time of crisis, but it could be an opportunity. The galaxy we knew has changed completely. The familiar has become the unknown, and it may never look like this again. This is a chance to do what every Starfleet captain is meant to do: explore!"
- Captain Sulu: "Captain Harriman, Captain Bateson, and I are arranging an expedition to find out what's really on the other side of one of those temporal anomalies, but it's going to be quite the ride. We could use a hand getting ready. What do you say, Captain? Curious enough to join us?"
Intermission
- Captain Bateson: "Glad you could join us to watch some history in the making. We're only here thanks to your help. Sulu insisted on being the first one through the anomaly, and, well, who am I to argue? They should just be passing thr-- What is it, Captain Harriman? Something wrong?"
- Captain Harriman: "The Excelsior made it through, but the universe they're in...everything is dead. All the planets are just empty rock, like something sucked them dry. According to the telemetry from the Excelsior, something's draining them, too. Life support and warp engines are losing power!"
- Choice A
- Captain: "Can you reach Captain Sulu?"
- Captain Harriman: "They're not responding to emergency hails. Whatever's draining their power must be affecting communications, too. I don't know if we'll be able to compensate from here."
- Choice B
- Captain: "Can you locate any source behind the power drain?"
- Captain Harriman: "There's no direct source that we can detect, which means nothing to target. Their power's just...slipping away."
- Choice C
- Captain: "Are there any habitable planets or structures at all? Somewhere they can shelter?"
- Captain Harriman: "Not that we've spotted. I've never seen anything like this before--never even read about it. From our readings, that whole universe just looks like...a wasteland."
- Captain Bateson: "If we follow them through, we'll both be up the same creek without a paddle. That means we need another way to get the Excelsior back, and we've got to keep them alive until we can do it. This isn't a science mission any more, Captain. This just became a rescue mission."
Epilogue
- Captain Sulu: "I can't tell you how good it feels to be back in this timeline. I owe you my life, Captain, and the lives of my crew. We may have lost the Excelsior, but what truly matters is that we all made it back in one piece."
- Captain Sulu: "That universe we were in...it was unrecognizable. I don't know if that was some distant future or another timeline altogether, or how the galaxy came to be so parasitic. When we weren't scrambling to keep our systems online, I had the crew run all the scans they could."
- Captain Sulu: "They downloaded most of the data to their tricorders, and I'm excited to see what we learn from it. We took a risk, but this is what I joined Starfleet to do: to explore strange new worlds. And I can promise you, Captain, we've never seen a world like that one before."
